Momma Ill Be Ok by Everette Lyrics

I KNOW THIS AIN’T THE LIFE YOU WOULDA CHOSE FOR ME
A REBEL WITH A GUITAR CHASING DOWN A DREAM
BUT IF YOU’RE GONNA GET SOMEWHERE
SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA LEAVE

I KNOW I DON’T CALL HOME AS MUCH AS I SHOULD
I TRY NOT TO DRINK TOO MUCH AND I’M EATING PRETTY GOOD
AND THAT MOTEL GIDEON BIBLE I DON’T READ BUT I SHOULD
AT LEAST I THOUGHT ABOUT IT, AND I THINK THAT’S PRETTY GOOD

MY HEART’S IN KENTUCKY, AND MY SONG’S IN TENNESSEE
MY GIRL IS IN CALIFORNIA, AND I SURE MISS ALL THREE
BUT DADDY TAUGHT ME HOW TO WORK
AND YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO PRAY
SO DON’T WORRY BOUT ME MOMMA, I’LL BE OK

LAST NIGHT THE BAR WAS CROWDED
AND THEY EVEN SANG ALONG
THAT RECORD MAN TOLD ME, “BOY IT WON’T BE LONG”
I’LL SAVE A LITTLE MONEY, AND BUY A TICKET HOME
I’LL BE THERE BY CHRISTMAS, SO LEAVE THE PORCHLIGHT ON
REPEAT CHORUS

THERE’S A MILLION MILES OF ROAD IN MY BLOODSHOT EYES
AND IN THE MIDNIGHT SMOKE UNDERNEATH THE NEON LIGHTS
I SWEAR I’VE SEEN A GHOST, THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE
WE HAD A BEER TOGETHER, BUT I WOULDN’T LET HIM BUY

REPEAT CHORUS

YEAH DADDY THOUGHT ME HOW TO WORK
AND YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO PRAY
SO DON’T WORRY BOUT ME MOMMA, I’LL BE OK
